[Pre-Chorus]
Ain't no peace out in these streets
Said ain't no peace out in these streets
Refuse to be defeated by enemies
Refuse to be mistreated by these police

[Chorus]
'Cause ain't no peace
Ain't no peace
Ain't no peace
Ain't no peace
Ain't no peace
Ain't no peace
Ain't no peace

[Verse 1]
Shoutout to the ghetto, life ain't even fair
Born with an old soul, but ain't been nowhere
Seem too much than a child could bear
Searching for love when it's just not there

[Pre-Chorus]
Ain't no peace out in these streets
Said ain't no peace out in these streets
Refuse to be defeated by enemies
Refuse to be mistreated by these police

[Chorus]
'Cause ain't no peace
Ain't no peace
Ain't no peace
Ain't no peace
Ain't no peace
Ain't no peace
Ain't no peace

[Verse 2]
So why me? Lord, tell me why me
I'm just tryin', just tryna provide for my family
So show me that sign for I'm so blind
And I won't know it unless you show me outside this grind

[Chorus]
'Cause ain't no peace
Ain't no peace
Ain't no peace
Ain't no peace
Ain't no peace
Ain't no peace
Ain't no peace

Akon

Akon (born Aliaume Akon Thiam), is a Senegalese-American Grammy-nominated and platinum-selling rapper, songwriter, singer and businessman. His trademark is singing the word ‘convict’ at the beginning of most of his songs.

Akon was born in the US but spent much of childhood in the West African country Senegal. There, he learned to play five instruments including the djembe, guitar and drums. Early on Akon signed a deal with Elektra Records, but was later dropped from the label.

His career took off when Lil Zane introduced Akon to music executive DeVyne Stephens, who signed him to his label UpFront Records and became his longtime manager and business partner.
